This new part of Sydney has been renamed Barangaroo, in honour of Benelong’s wife. Bennelong was one of the first Aborigines the white settlers made contact with. 

Barangaroo is supposed to become the new city centre. Work has already begun. The red blocks there now are for some preliminary test. 

The headland will become a big park area and further on along the strip of vacant land many very tall buildings will be erected.  But of course this new development generates a lot of controversy. Lots of different opinions what is best for Sydney.
